IPod Nano 6th Generation Not Charging/Holding Charge

Hi.
My iPod Nano 6th generation will not charge or hold a charge. I plug it in and it will turn on for about 30 seconds or less and then die. It will then continue to turn on and die unless I unplug it in which case it will die and not turn on. Any advice/suggestions and/or help finding what is wrong would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

hold down the enter button for 5 secs then plug into wall while still holding it down.

  • IPod nano 6th generation not charging, not showing in iTunes, won't reset

    iPod 6th generation, completely out of battery.  Won't charge off iMac, plug socket or Macbook.  Won't show up in iTunes in any either.  Won't reset using the method i found on here (volume down button and sleep/awake button for 8-20 seconds).
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

  • Ipod nano 6th generation not recognized by itunes

    Whenever i plug in my 6th generation nano (the little one with the touch screen), iTunes tells me it knows there is an iPod connected, but it cant be identified properly. Ive tried resolving it with all the help on iTunes and nothing has worked. Any ideas?

    The most likely culprit is that you have an older version of iTunes. You'll want iTunes 10 and up. To check which version go to the Help Menu in iTunes and click About iTunes. That'll tell you the version. If it's below 10 go back to the Help Menu and check for updates, install the latest version, which 10.2.2
    If it is iTunes 10 or later, uninstall and reinstall iTunes. Here's the article that walks you through it.

  • TA44551 Apple ipod nano 6th generation wont charge on pC, mains or car.

    My ipod nano 6th generation wont charge, either through mains, car or computer USB charger.  Had it one month, bought it from Amazon.  Just dead, wont wake up.  When it had charge tried master reset etc. still not able to charge or recognised/charge on PC

    It'll need to charge for a while before it will turn on. Leave it to charge for a couple of hours, then try again.

  • New iPod nano 6th generation won't charge.

    I just bought a new ipod nano 6th generation multi-touch. I opened it and it had no charge and a black screen, no surprise I assumed it just has no juice in it. I plugged it into my macbook pro via the USB cord included and after leaving it attached for over 3 hours it still has yet to charge or offer me more than a black screen. Is there any way to remedy this? Am I doing something wrong? Is it just simply dead and I need to return it for another? I have a half marathon to run in a week and I'd like to know soon so I can have it for the race x.x

    If it does not get enough juice from the USB port, it will not charge.
    You should NOT connect it to a USB hub. Connect it directly to the computer. If you use a desktop computer, use one of the ports on the back, not one on the front, which tend to be lower power.
    You say you are using a macbook, which tend to be better about power. Make sure you don't have any settings that turn off power to the usb ports when the computer goes to sleep. Check your power settings in the settings screen.

    Hi meganisawsome,
    If your iPod will not turn on and you are getting indicators that there is no battery left, the first step would be to make sure that the iPod has been charged correctly. You may find the following article useful:

  • My ipod nano 6th generation will not turn on.

    My iPod nano (6th generation) will not turn on. I have charged it (attached to my computer) for 30 minutes. I have tried to reset it (held down Wake and Volume Down for 8 seconds)- no response. I have factory restored it (through iTunes)- no response. It shows up as connected to my computer and will sync in iTunes, but the display on the iPod will not turn on. Any ideas?

    Hey s.mccarter2010,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you have tried a lot of things and the iPod still will not turn on. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iPod won't turn on
    If you have tried the solutions above and iPod still won't turn on, check the following:
    Make sure iPod is the only device in your FireWire or USB chain. Disconnect everything but the mouse, keyboard, and your iPod, then see if it will turn on.
    Make sure you are using the FireWire or USB cable that came with your iPod, and that the cable is in good condition.
    Try connecting iPod to the built-in port of a different computer to see if that works. Note: If using a portable computer, make sure it is plugged in to a power source and that the lid or display is open. If the lid is closed the computer may go into either standby, sleep, or hibernation mode and iPod will not charge properly.
    If you still can't turn iPod on after performing these steps, it may need to be repaired. You can arrange for repair at the iPod Service Website.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • IPod nano 5th generation battery is losing charge

    My iPod nano 5th generation battery is losing charge. I do not use this this ipod alot because I have older ipod iPod nano (3rd generation) which I like better. The problem is this ipod gos dead even if I don't use it. This ipod will not shut off and thats why it gos dead.
    Is there any way to troubleshoot thlis ipod nano 5th generation to find out how and why it will not shut off, because this should not go dead if your not using it...

    The iPod Nano 5th generation does not actually shut off. It "sleeps" by pressing the pause button until the screen goes black. To keep the battery from losing its charge, keep the iPod Nano connected to your computer, wall charger or a charging dock when not in use.
    When the iPod is left unattended (not charging), the battery will still lose its charge. This is mentioned in the battery section of the iPod Nano 5th Gen. User Manual.
